THE LAST SLEEP.
CHICAGO, Nov. 11.-All the condemned
anarchists slept we'll last night. The sher-
iff came early. Fischer woke up first,
sprang lightly from his cot and commenced
to dress. There was sullen look upon
his face and he only grunted when the
death watch wished him hearty "Good
morning." Almost at the same moment
Spies awoke and Engel at once arose from
his bunk. Spies, however, stretched his
arms and lay still moment. Parsons sat
up on the edge Of his cot and gazed at the
opposite wall of his cell. Then he sighed
in sad and weary way and slowly arose.
After all had finished their ablutions, at 7
o'clock the food which had been ordered
was brought in and taken to the cells. ALI
had ordered beefsteak, coffee and bread
and butter, except Parsons, who had ex-
pressed desire for raw oysters, fried eggs
and milk toast. All Of them ate heartily.
Parsons especially cleared everything be-
fore him and asked for plate of fried
oysters. They were quickly procured and

prisoners had finished their last meal,

tied the men. Rev. H. w. Bolton, pas
tor of the first Methodist church, arrived at
the court yard door and asked to be per-
mitted to talk with the condemned. Engel
listened to him without reply. Spies was
writing and would not look up. At 825
Spies quit writing and calling to the death
watch asked for couple Of envelopes.

placed three pages in one envelope and
two pages in another. He then lighted his
cigar and gazed coutemplatively out
through the bars up at the skylight. At
8:45 letters came to the men. Spies ex-
pressed a desire for draught of Rhine
across the street with instructions to pro-
cure quart of the best quality. Return
ing to his table, Spies again commenced to
write, while Parsons, Engel and Fischer
sat with gloomy expression, looking into
the corridor. AS the hands on the big
clock in the jail Office pointed to $50 there
was little stir at the door and the guard
admitted Chief Deputy Sheriff Gleason.

THE FATAL DOCUMENTS
sealing the anarchists doom. Deputy
Gleason was met at the door by Sheriff
Matson and they at once retired to the lat
ter's private room. In the meantime the
condemned men seemed to have received
an intimation Of Gleason's business and
Spies asked one of the guards If the death
warrants had come. He was very nervous
and seemed to be consumed with internal
agitation which sent his hot blood to his
face flushing 1t to deep red. At times d
deathly pal0r would spread over his

sioner was quiet but sure. There was very
little doubt OF Edgerly's election in the
morning, and what little doubt did exist
vanished long before noon. A stream of
Edgerly men aowed to and from the polls
at both of the city precincts from the open
ing to the closing of the polls and notwith-
standing the popularity of Mr.. Sinclair he
was not quite sure that he was in the field
until the votes had been counted and the
result showed that he had received 10 votes
in precinct No. l, and 80 in precinct No. 2.
The vote in the city precincts of the first
commissioner district was as follows:

come any arsangemcns for enlarged com
mercial relations between Canada and the

suggests that 'any differences Of opinion
